Leigh Designs has a tradition of releasing a series of small canvases on November 1 each year. Leigh calls this her November Surprise. For 2018, she's celebrating Oktoberfest and beer!

There are 8 types of beer, each in their own special glass, and each canvas has a stitch guide by Leona Cole, Pat Miller or Carolyn Taggart. To see the models, click on the photo of each unstitched canvas. If you do, you'll see a Master Class on stitching glassware! Note how the tall, thin glasses use tall, thin stitches, for example. Check out "Swaggering Stout." The faceted glass is beautifully handled. I was especially intrigued by the use of diamond shaped stitches for some of the more rounded glasses. It works!
Kudos to the Leigh Design teams!
